The new “Post Feed Redirect” will occasionally stop redirecting clients when it is set to a FeedBurner feed. The workaround for now is to add an “?alt=atom” parameter to the feed URL in your FeedBurner settings.

Some script tags inserted manually into the template code, instead of inserted through a HTML/JavaScript page element, will prevent the Template Page Elements tab from fully loading. For instance, some users report that they are unable to view the "Add Page Element" link. To workaround this issue, please ensure that all JavaScript is inserted via a page element.

In Internet Explorer 6.0 and in Compose mode, if you upload an image and then drag it to another location in your post, you might be unable to click through to the full size version of the image once the post is published. To avoid this problem, you can either use a different web browser or switch to Edit HTML mode to move the image code manually.

If you are using a custom domain, your BlogSpot address will only redirect to that domain if it does not have "www" at the beginning. I.e. both xxxxx.blogspot.com and www.xxxxx.blogspot.com will display the blog correctly, but only the former will appear with your custom domain name.

If a profile item (Interests, Favorites, etc.) includes a hyphen (eg: Blogger-Cat), then the profile search will not display any results. To workaround this issue, simply replace the "-" with a "+" in the address bar of the search results page, and you'll get the proper results.
